Both aquariums had strawberry anemones. The shot below is from the first (larger) aquarium. It was taken through the glass, hence the slight blurriness. I liked the color balance though.

The second aquarium had a touch tank with more strawberry anemones. I brought my waterproof camera and was able to stick it in the tank to get some nice really close up shots.
